Wait a minute. ‘Once upon a time’ is how all the best children’s stories begin and ‘prostitute’ is a word for adults. How can I start a book with this apparent contradiction?”

That’s how Paulo Coelho’s book “Eleven minutes” begins.

And we can’t argue, being an author is COOL.

And not only that…

This excerpt is the beginning paragraph taken from the famous Coelho’s bestseller – Eleven Minutes. It shows a creativity an author can foretake to make his idea stick, into readers minds. Make them love his product, remember the author, and spontaneously building the credibility of expertise in our minds. Just as this book did with me – I still remember Eleven Minutes, and its infamous beginning even though I’ve read it more than ten years ago. Unlike hundreds of other read books that didn’t leave me with significant emotion feeling wonderful, nor a pleasant thing that could make them stick into my memories.

Relax, we can learn this too.

Fasten your seatbelt we’re ready to launch!

Even though authoring a book and be on the niche is a big investment in time, effort, and money, in the end, it has a lot of benefits. With the writing, editing, proofreading, design and production work required to publish a book, it can take years before it’s done, and if you can’t write yourself, hiring ghostwriter may cost you a car. The struggle pays off!

Becoming an author is worth it, even when it takes years and costs thousands!

Because writing a book is such a big project, people often dream about doing it but don’t actually get it done because they get stuck along the way. We strive to change that and that’s why at The Books Factory we love to offer any help necessary.

96% said having a book positively influenced their business;

96% generated more clients;

94% generated more leads;

87% attracted a more desirable client base;

These statistics are from a few years ago, but they’re still pretty fantastic!

1)Spread the word

Writing a book is one of the best ways to share your story and experience with the world. It allows you to reach audiences unlimited by geographic and economic status. There are other ways to do this too, but a book has more tremendous value because it’s an object and extension of oneself.

2)Help Others

Your skills and expertise may seem familiar and usual with yourself since you’re accommodated with them but to others, they may be like a treasury. That’s why it’s a good thing to share them in a book, and help others along the way. Becoming an author allows you to reach and help far more people than you could reach in real person.

3)Become an Expert

You may have heard the saying “your goals aren’t goals until you write them down on paper”. It’s similar to books. Even if you know what you are talking about until you’ve written about it, it’s harder for other people to understand you properly. So just the process of writing a book adds to your expertise a lot!

Becoming an author let others know you’re the expert!

4)Passive Income from Royalties

If we see book writing from the lengths of your income strategy, a book is something you write once and can make money from as long as you keep it in print. Of course, books don’t sell if you don’t market and promote them.

Don’t worry, we can help you with that At The Books Factory.

5)Get Publicity and Media Attention

Getting media attention may be a difficult task, whether is just for trying to share your story or try to get your business mentioned somewhere. A book is like a lead magnet, and a decent benefit of you being an Author.

Journalists are always looking for experts to interview, and that’s your chance to be reviewed in newspapers and magazines too. Any invitations for a radio or television show? With a book, you’ll have for sure!

Girish Saansgiri is a food-savvy veteran who has been pursuing his passion for cooking for a long time now. Having visited multiple countries all over the globe, he’s well versed in the diversities of food and culture. He enjoyed trying various cuisines in different parts of the world, but then, he saw a problem:

He found one aspect common in every country that he visited – unhealthy foods were always cheaper than their healthy alternatives, and this has caused health problems across the world.

“One thing I’ve found common almost everywhere I went is that convenience is a commodity and people preferred to buy their food than to cook for themselves. This led to a high consumption of junk and processed food, which eventually wrapped them up in a plethora of diseases”

This got Girish thinking. He realized that in this fast-paced world, most people don’t want to spend time cooking unless it becomes absolutely necessary. And this is not just a problem for a few, but there are millions of people in the same situation.

This is one question we often come across in our discussions as a self-publishing agency.

Of course, the answer is not in black and white. There are too many processes and variables involved to give a blanket answer.

But the one question we can answer confidently, out of our experience as one of the leading self-publishing innovators is this –

Can You make your book a success by self-publishing?

Our answer would be an emphatic YES. With the right team, strategy, and execution you can definitely reach your target audience and achieve your overreaching outcomes.

‘Content marketing is a marketing technique of creating and distributing valuable, relevant and consistent content to attract and acquire a clearly defined audience – with the objective of driving profitable customer action.’

The keyword here is “valuable.” There are thousands of types of contents used every single day by businesses all around the globe most of which goes to spam. But content marketing focuses on spreading valuable data so as to increase sales, ensure cost savings and acquire customers who are in need of your business and its services.

Standing out from the crowd is far from a walk in the park. With a plethora of social media platforms where everyone is constantly bustling about their activities, opinions, and ideas, with real – time conversations and networking taking a back seat, it is grueling to make your presence count – to draw attention towards yourself and your work.

Can you think of one thing that Jamie Oliver (an accomplished cook), Paris Hilton (the socialite), Barack Obama (ex-president of United States), Warren Buffett ( Business leader) and Young House Love (Pioneer DIY bloggers) have in common?

They have all published books.

This just shows the appeal and impact books across various industry and levels of expertise.
